Expression patterns and the prognostic value of the EMILIN/Multimerin family members in low-grade glioma.

ABSTRACT: Managing low-grade gliomas (LGG) remains a major medical challenge due to the infiltrating nature of the tumor and failure of surgical resection to eliminate the disease. EMILIN/Multimerins contain the gC1q signature, which is involved in many tumor processes. However, the expression and prognostic value of EMILIN/Multimerins in LGG remains unclear. This study used integrated bioinformatics analysis to investigate the expression pattern, prognostic value and function of EMILIN/Multimerins in patients with LGG. We analyzed the transcription levels and prognostic value EMILIN/Multimerins in LGG using the ONCOMINE, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) and UALCAN databases. The mutation and co-expression rates of neighboring genes in EMILIN/Multimerins were studied using cBio
